The Versant 180 achieves a new standard of image quality, delivering four times more pixels than other presses while still printing at blazing fast speeds. It’s a winning combination of technologies, including our Emulsion Aggregation (EA) Toner, 2400 x 2400 dpi with 10-bit RIP and an advanced Compact Belt Fuser that provides just the right amount of consistent heat and pressure for a given stock. Every job is rendered with jaw-dropping detail, crispness and clarity from first print to last.

You’ll spend less time in preproduction, and get the highest quality without guesswork from job start to finish. Our Simple Image Quality Adjustment (SIQA) automates three critical components of your print job throughout the run.

• Automated Image-to-Media Alignment ensures each page is perfectly registered and aligned – saving time and eliminating costly waste caused by registration errors or image skew – for perfect front-to-back registration regardless of media type or sheet size.

• Automated Image Transfer Adjustment ensures unsurpassed print quality on every stock – smooth, textured or unique – by optimising toner coverage based on media type.

• Automated Density Uniformity Adjustment safeguards image integrity across the page, delivering consistent and uniform toner coverage and preventing washed-out areas before they occur.

SIQA works in conjunction with the Versant 180’s Integrated Registration Alignment (IRA) technology to make remarkable registration easy, accurate and automated – allowing you to produce higher quality jobs faster, on more media types, with better output and less waste.

Features That Drive Performance, Image Quality and Versatility

1 Ultra HD Resolution – The combination of rendering resolution and imaging resolution with expanded halftone screens yields a smoother, crisper resolution of objects and improved graphic fills and sweeps.

2 Advanced Oversized High Capacity Feeder (option) – Total paper capacity of 4,000 sheets (330 x 488 mm) in two trays with integrated technology to reduce skew, improve paper handling and prevent misfeeds. A Tray Inserter extends minimum size to 98 x 148 mm for postcards and envelopes.

3 Bypass Tray – A convenient and accessible pick point for feeding standard and specialty media like envelopes or extra-long sheets (XLS).

4 Extra-Long Sheet (XLS) Capability – Print banners, dust jackets, calendars and other applications up to 660 mm long.

5 Custom Paper Settings – Ensure perfect output on all stocks by allowing users to set, save and recall a wide range of technical settings for specific media types.

6 Press Interface – Provides quick and easy access to scan and copy features, automated processes, status and maintenance functions.

7 Automated Run-Time Colour Controls – An internal subsystem of closed-loop process controls works continuously during printing to automatically maintain colour consistency and colour-to-colour registration throughout the run.

More power. More performance.The Xerox® Versant® 180 Press with the Performance Package option enhances base capabilities with greater speeds on heavyweight stocks and automated colour management tools.

P R I N T 2 5 % F A S T E R O N T H E H E A V I E S T S T O C K S

Most presses slow down with heavier stocks – sometimes as much as half the rated speed. The Performance Package’s All Stocks Rated Speed (ASRS) feature eliminates bottlenecks caused by heavier-weight stocks. Even stock weights up to 350 gsm will run at 80 ppm.

ACQS is a powerful combination of advanced colour management software and integrated hardware that transfers complex decisions about colour maintenance from the operator to an automated system, eliminating the time and error associated with manual colour management. Once initiated by the operator, ACQS automates the printing and measurement of calibration charts and calculates precise adjustments to colour tables based on the results.

17

X - R I T E ® I N L I N E S P E C T R O P H O T O M E T E R ( I L S )

The Performance Package option includes an inline spectrophotometer built into the paper path where it measures spectral data and hands it over to the ACQS colour management software for print server calibration and stock profiling.

By removing the need for an operator-intensive handheld spectrophotometer and manual process, the ILS reduces errors and time spent on calibration while ensuring stable, accurate and repeatable colour. And because the process is pain-free and easy, operators are more likely to complete calibration and profiling.

10 Intermediate Belt Transfer – An automated and continuous process applying bias (voltage) and sensors to transfer images to registered paper with higher colour quality and consistency with no operator involvement.

11 Bias Charge Rolls and Auto Cleaning Technology – Provides uniform electrical charging of key xerographic components, ensuring smoother halftones and reduced downtime. Both Bias Charge Rolls and Drum Cartridges are combined as a single, customer replaceable unit (CRU) for easier, faster maintenance.

12 Integrated Scanner – A dual-head colour scanner provides copy and scanning up to 200 ipm and scans in black and white or colour, up to 600 dpi, with a 250-sheet (90 gsm) Duplex Automatic Feeder up to A3 sheets. Scanning output options include scan-to-file, email, USB or a server.

13 Simple Image Quality Adjustment (SIQA) – Pushbutton-easy print and auto-scan adjustments produce higher quality jobs faster, on more media types, with better output and less waste.

14 Load-While-Run Dry Ink – Specially engineered Emulsion Aggregation (EA) Low Melt Dry Ink provides a smooth, offset-like finish and outstanding colour image quality with smaller, more uniform particles and less energy.

15 Advanced Fusing Technology – A newly designed flat fuser pad in the Compact Belt Fuser results in a larger surface contact area, reducing paper stress and deformation. The fuser uses two heat rolls to replenish the heat lost through the fusing process more quickly and efficiently for consistent image quality at high speeds. Although designed for long life, the entire assembly is customer replaceable, eliminating downtime and lost productivity.

16 Smart Decurler Module – Delivers consistent, error-free finishing by automatically removing up or down curl using paper weight and ambient temperature/humidity data.
